First hahah
😄😄
Sorry I had to!
I honestly loved watching this video so much. Of course I'm a tad biased but I've been dying for months waiting to see what you made and it was so worth the wait. I feel guilty that I added so much to mine lol I feel like I cheated you.
I'm glad you like the earrings I bought them long ago and never had a chance to wear them so I was hoping you'd find a use. So glad they actually got to be real accessories for you!!! They look beautiful.
I'm so blown away by the end result and how you used all the materials I sent, I think you should totally create a fairy tale home now!
Each room can be a new theme representing your favourite childhood fairy tales or remembering the most special moments with your grandparents and your storytimes together.
Thanks so much for doing this collab with me, it was a ton of fun. 🤗
Hi, Jen!
@@moda78z Hi
Hi
I heard my Granddaughter screaming “GRANPA! GRANPA! GRANDPA!” and I almost broke my neck running into the house thinking she’d cut off her hand or something. Instead she shows me her tablet and informs me I have to make her a Princess and the Pea bed for her doll castle. Once my heart returned to semi-normal rhythm I had a flash back to being 10 years old and my grandmother telling each of us grandkids a bedtime story. She always told my cousin Shana the story of the Princess and the Pea.
First... BRILLIANTLY DONE!! BRAVA!!
Second... Thank you for bringing back a favorite childhood memory
Third... Thank you for giving a Granddad the perfect thing to create for his beautiful granddaughter.
Lastly.. because of this I’m going back to the gym! 😂
Oh my goodness I am so glad everyone is ok!! I know that heart sinking feeling when you hear a kiddo yelling your name! I am so glad this will be made for your granddaughter! She has an awesome grandpa😁
seriously the cutest comment ive ever read
Me: I wish I had tools small enough to carve beautiful tiny details in doll furniture...
Ara: glues sequins and paper flowers, then covers with gesso and paint so it looks hand carved.
Also Me: ...Why didn't I think of that? 🤔
If I can fake it and make it easier on myself... all the better ;) I do hope to learn someday how to really carve though!
Right?!
E bay dolls house tools not brand new used are alot cheaper x
Exactly what I was thinking while I watched this. XD
I’m amazed at how much of the stuff Jen send you you were able to use 😱. I love it!
Jen and you should do more collabs 👍
Thank you so much!! I hope we do!
I LOVE making something from nothing. It requires complete artistic imagination and challenges you to go out of your comfort zone. The bed was charming.
The pea was the perfect finishing touch.
After watching for the third time, I continue to enjoy this one.
In my mind “grantique”meant grand-as in fancy- and antique, so this ornate bed with jewels and carvings fit the definition perfectly.
Great job, Ara, beautiful concept and execution! ❤️
Thank you Audrey!!😊
It's incredible how many of the materials from the box you used in this project. It makes me so happy to see scraps, leftovers and trash transform into beautiful new items. The bed is super adorable!
Thank you so much!
I love the idea of swapping and 'recycling' supplies
Wow, watching Jen pack her box I did not get princess and the pea. Amazing job!
Ara, I love this and I love what Jen did as well. I was surprised to learn that you two are friends. I have been watching her for a long time, but just toy reviews, not crafting. I don't care much about toys, but I do love her personality. These two videos were such fun to watch, I hope you will do more of the same. Please stay safe in this crazy world.
Thank you Jenny! Her personality brings me such joy as well! You can't help but feel happy during a NexJen video :)
She has a perfect Amy Winehouse aesthetic 😉 love it!
Very cute! (The Princess looks like a purple-haired Amy Winehouse! 😆)
Some you tubers have the “buy me a coffee” I feel like if Bentley House had one it would be “buy me a bottle of glue/ brown paint”
Haha yes... I go through those so fast!😂
Hi Ara!
Recycle, Reduce, Reuse - - YAY!!!
I like the bed. "The princess and the pea". Adorable.
Thank you Darnelle! 😊
Can we get a series out of this challenge? Cause I loved it so much. As someone without money and doesnt want to trash what could avoid a landfill by being repurposed I often make things out of what others consider trash. This was good inspiration for imagining possibilities.
Thank you for making and sharing!
This was Jen's series idea so she may continue it on her channel but I would def be open to swapping with her again. And I will always continue to reuse items in my minis when I can! :)
Here from Jens channel looking forward to watching this series grow
Welcome! Thanks for coming over to watch :)
I love this!!! I looks so whimsical. my only critique would be I wish you had made a ladder to lean against it for the princess to have used to climb onto this massive bed. But other than that it's so great! looks amazing!
Jen: oh no, I didn't give Ara anything personalized or thoughtful like she gave me.
Ara: thank you for my new earrings, I know you meant them for me and not the project 😜
Yay nice people being creative friends~~~
Omgosh I didn't even consider that hahah. Yay I gave her something lol.
Definitely! I have my NexJen earrings in a safe place :)
I'm always amazed at your work and creativity!! All the things you used turned out awesome, and the fact that you actually made the pea just makes your attention to detail even more amazing. Great job💜🖤💙
Thank you so much Vanessa! It was the easiest thing to make but added so much ;)
This was absolutely amazing I love your work it looks straight out of a storybook so majestic congratulations on being so talented
This is so genius and so creative. I could never. My mind is blown! (I am here from NexJen)
Thank you! Welcome to the channel!
Bee-but here, but I love miniatures, and Jen felt so bad after seeing the miniature cat clock you sent her! 💖
Welcome! She gave me my new fav earrings though ;) And she was so sweet to send the Beebuts merch!
Looks amazing, one tip for the thin paper, I love covering it in fabric glue. It does however give it a nice leathery look but it could be a tip that you may need later on lol
Great tip! I am always up for new ways to use glue in crafting!
Hi. I’m here because of Jen. You guys are so creative. You just earned a subscriber. ☺️
Thank you so much and welcome to the channel!!💖
Absolutely fantastic! And the little pea detail is the icing on the cake. I have no idea what I would have made with what Jen sent you but when I saw that huge reel you sent her I immediately thought of a Ferris wheel or a carousel (which she made). Jen did some serious building, too, for sure. So much fun to watch the two of you trash geniuses make these treasures. Inspirational!
So glad you got together for this collab! You and Jen are two of my go-to-to-feel-good channels. This is great - thanks for a wonderful smile!
Yay! Thank you!😊
Love your channel and your amazing creations. This was a fantastic collab and your outcome is beautiful. Well done 👍👍👍
Thank you so much 😊
If I collected polly pockets, they would all be gothic monstrosities
I always wished they had made a haunted house Polly Pocket... seems like an opportunity lost!
@@BentleyHouseMinis check out @artsavanna on Instagram she customers a haunted Polly Pocket compact awhile back and I was so in love with it. I think you'd want it for sure.
oh I def will! that sounds amazing!
I've been a little (lot) behind in watching your videos, so this is way overdue. I can't believe your imagination! How you came up with the Princess and the pea is beyond me. Amazing! Now I have to watch Jen's.
Well done!! I thought the top of the bed was fabric!! These collabs are such fun to see what you both come up with.
That seems like a neat idea!! Making something out of each other’s scraps, sounds helpful , too.
I hope you two do more of these! They're a great de-stressor with everything going on!
I came here because of NexJen. And I'm glad that I did! I love how you explain each detail of what you're doing and your voice is very pleasant. New subbie here💗
I’m having a pain filled day, and was trying to find something on TH-cam to take my mind off the pain. I found this video. I love ❤️ your video
i Don't know why TH-cam suggested this to me again, but I remember this to be the first Vid i saw of you. And im hooked since then. Lets watch it again, who caes? its fun! 🥰
What a precious bed!!!! You did such a great job!!!!💕🧜♀️
You both did so well! I loved the story of the Princess and the Pea as a kid because I always had trouble sleeping so someone bought me the book and I used to read it all the time, but for some reason whenever I'd mention it no one else knew what I was talking about, so it's really nice to be reminded of it by your lovely project here.
Love this project. It looked like a lot of fun for you to put together. Ok, so.. Rosettes. The circular thing you were trying to make with the accordion folds. Rosettes are tricky. I have made many, and they still give me problems. To get the circle you must first glue the edges together. Then you kind of scrunch all the folds, while pushing toward the center to make the circle. It's a nightmare. I generally put a dab of hot glue down, make the circle, hold it with both hands and put the center into the hot glue, hold until the glue cools. Just type rosette how to in the search and you will get a million videos that can explain it better than I can.. haha Thanks for the video. Going over to watch Jen's now. Yay!
Oh thanks for the tip on that! I couldn't figure out how to get it to bend to my will lol!! So glad you liked the video! I know you will enjoy Jen's video too!
You and Jen did such an amazing job using each other's recyclables I can't wait to see the next collaboration you guys do thank you both so much💗🥂
the crowns worked out great. You are amazing. great job on using so much of the items Jen had sent you.
Thank you so much!
For fuzzies on the twine, light a candle, hold the twine tight and quickly run it over the candle. It'll burn off the little "hairs" very easily.
Ohh! This is sooo beautiful!!! I love how creative you are and how you can make art with anything! I'd definitely love to see more projects like that from both of you!
Thank you💖💖
I just love the idea of using items that can be recycled or normally thrown out and making something new from them! Your creations are so inspiring- I really enjoy watching your videos! Thank you for sharing them. The Princess and the Pea has always been one of my favorite fairytales and I enjoyed seeing how you interpreted this iconic moment in the story. 😊
Those little houses are the cutest things ever! So jealous of the awesome miniatures you have
Again a wonderful piece as always! Awesome collaboration! Love all the different fabrics in the stack of mattresses. and of course there is no Ara project without some brown paint ;)
Lol! Thank you! Yes... all the brown paint! ;)
I love when you leave google drive patterns versus drop box!
Absolutely beautiful 😍 you both made such awesome peices.
The princess looks like Amy Winehouse and I'm here for it!!
This is so cool! We watch Jen all the time and this is an awesome new type of video! I hope you do this more often!
Thank you and welcome!
Wonderful! Very enjoyable to watch you make this! :D
It is such a pleasure to see someone work so much with what's on hand. Right now, due to my crafts obsessions, my home looks like a hoarders house. Empty amazon boxes and packages all over. I always hate to toss them out, as I keep thinking there MUST be a use for them! Yay! Now I know! I love your channel, and just found your youtube channel as well as store. (of course I had to order even MORE stuff!) I'm mostly into 1:24 at this time, but I'm sure I'll be branching out more as I get braver!
The bed turned out Awesome you are truly talented 💕 going to Jen’s to see what she makes
This was such a surprising, yet amazing collab! I've watched both of you for kind of a long time now and to see you collab is just the best! I hope you guys will do it again!!
Thank you so much!! I hope we will collab again too!
This came out beautifully, you're so skilled and talented! I was skeptical of how well those sequins would come out (that bleed through!!) but you handled everything to perfection and the end result is just delightful.
Thank you so much!
Amazing collab! :D 💜💜💜
I love what both of you created :)
Starting off the new year with a collab like this, it´s gonna be hard to top it for the next 11 months! lol
Haha thank you!! I know right!
this is the cutest bed EVER and now I have to make one, well two, because I know my niece will want her own too!
Great job! I could have never come up with such a cute project from that box of supplies. Love your channel!
ARA! The added paper to the sides of the canopy looks exactly like bunched up fabric! So great!!! Love love love the earrings! The corner pieces are perfect!!
Thank you... that was a happy accident for sure!
I always loved The Princess and the Pea!
Love the bed!!! The bubble packaging is a fantastic idea!! 💕
Thank you!! 😊
So creative and resourceful. Love this collaboration.
Amazing! When Jen was packing the box, I was so interested to see what you would be able to come up with. Totally amazing!
Same here, I was not disappointed 😁
@@NexJen you did AMAZING too Jen. I am in love with the carousel!
@@stateofdisorder1 thank you so much.
Thank you so much! And I have more items leftover for future projects too... my NexJen stash ;)
This was my first introduction to your channel and I am staying. Love this project and love fairytales so it's even better. Have a good day.
Welcome to the channel!
I JUST talked about the princess & the pea to my fiance two days ago and here you are making it Haha
Very cute, love the details. I really want to make the same thing. You're so creative! Please make more fairy tale things ♡
That's too funny! I read this story to my kids while I was building it and my daughter said.. "why did she marrying him? Should she be made he wrecked her sleep?!" Lol! Thank you so much Jenny-Lynn!
@@BentleyHouseMinis I think your daughter has been taught well. From my favorite fairy tales I liked the artists work more than the fairy tales.
Amazing...you are beyond a craft person. You are clearly a superb artist! My adult daughter reminds me of this story as she is an ultra sensitive girl and of course, a princess!
First time seeing both of your videos of trash craft and i like the crafts they are so cool ! Hope you get more attention both of you deserve it !🤩✨🖤
Thank you so much!
This was a fun collab!!! I liked your fairy tale theme!!!
This collab was so cute, I'm looking forward to seeing more fun projects. Kind of makes me think about my leftovers and what I could make from them....
I just went and watched Jen’s video. I saw yours earlier today. I hope you do this again. It’s awesome.
Oh, I love four posters. I really want my own one day. Maybe I'll have to make a model one to keep me while I search.
Great Trash Box concept and finished pieces created by both of you !
What a great idea to trade boxes like this! You nailed it. I'll have to go check out what she made from your random items!
I'm so glad you and Jen did this collab! I had never seen your videos before but I am so excited to watch more of them now. I love your project because it reminds me of my Nana who passed away 4 years ago this month. She read me that story many times when I was little. She also loved to read me the book Heidi when I was sick. Cannot wait to watch more of your videos. Thank you for the quality content
Thank you so much Brittany! I love it when minis can remind of stories that remind of us of our loved ones! It makes them so special!
I love what you made!
I love ‘Junk Modelling’.
You both made really fun pieces and I’m going to use your videos as examples of ‘Junk Modelling’ for our craft group.
I love your bed post(er)s ;) and the carved look you achieved for the bed.
Awesome! Thank you!
What an amazing princess and bed. Love love love it. Great job. You have a great imagination.
Thank you so much Agnes!💖
I kinda want this to be a yearly thing. Each year pack up your odds ans ends and send them away to be used in a colab vid. Awesome vid, im glad i found this channal!
That would be so fun to do it every year!
This is incredible! And I love the notion of grantique!
Keep up the good work ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Amazing build from scraps Ara! 🤩 and the canopy material/effect was just inspired 😍💖✨
Thank you my friend!! 😊
This is so much fun to watch. You both are so very creative and it is so nice to see the crafting trash being used.
Ara your creativity is incredible and I absolutely adore your channel. I love how her hair turned out it makes her look quite regal despite just waking up. Thankyou for another amazing video 🙂
Just a side note. It would be great to see you two colab on a bigger project, so the same as what you have done but working towards a bigger scale, Jen could work towards an entire fairground/carnival while Ara works towards a fairy house for example where each room could represent a different fairy tale. All the while changing up the rules and stipulations each time etc. I don’t know just thinking out loud
I hope we will collab again in the future too! This one took us 3 months so we would have to really plan for something bigger ;) So glad you enjoyed it!
Oh my gosh!!! That picture of the princess and the pea has always inspired me!! I still have that picture!! You just made my dream project!!! You did a wonderful job!!!!
It's definitely a classic! I would love to see your take on it too!
Absolutely love it. Came across Jen’s channel this morning. Loved what she did with what you sent her.
That is awesome hun I was thinking mermaid and boat bottom the thread is for felting not cheap either good quality to beautiful colours xx you make items look so simple beautiful antique look to them xx be safe all
Wow this was ace. I had forgotten that tail I loved it as a kid.
Looks wonderful
I love, love, love how you did this video! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you!
This turned out so so cool! And the idea with the scrapbox, is just so fun and cool
Thank you my friend! When Jen suggested it I knew it would be so fun!!
@@BentleyHouseMinis I think this is fun, my to favorite TH-camr making something together. and the idea is awesome
Loved this collab, 2 of my favourite youtubers!! Loved both your projects. 💖💖💖
BTW: Last year I used your paper punch out dragon scale technique to cover my work diary for 2020! Took me a long time but I fine tuned things as I went. Plan to do another for this year. 😘
That's so cool! I can only imagine that took forever! I was glad to see Jen was able to reuse my dragon scales ;)
goodness that is so cool! I love the way of making the 'carved' wooden panels. That is so clever. Also I had never thought of using modpodge to smooth things down between parts. I am definitely using that in future projects.
Thanks so much! 😊
Great tip for the twine, if no one has mentioned it yet is to take a lighter and sweep it up the twine. It will get rid of all those little bits
Thank you for the tip! That sounds like it would have been a lot less work😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis oh it does!!! I had the same issues as you . After my project was finished ( of course) , I came across a crafting channel and someone in the comments suggested the lighter trick. I will never not use one from now on.
As always it’s beautiful and another clever idea 🥰
I love this Ara!
It's been on my list for a long time to make the princess and the pea scene.
Bentley, make a diorama or box room of a fairy and set the Tudor bed in there
That’s so cool that I see you made the princess and the pea bed. I’ve been researching that for my next cardboard project.
My last cardboard project was Dorothy’s house from wizard of oz. I hang it at an angle so it looks like it’s in the twister.
My sister loved it so much I sent it to her and had to make myself another one.
I've been watching Jen for some time now. I don't have kids (not even nephews or nieces), so I don't buy toys- Although, I buy collectible figurines 😆.
I just watch her videos because I think she is fun and truthful on her opinions and I find that really entretaining.
Anyway, really nice collab. I love what you've done with what she sent ^_^
I do love that she does both... kids toys and adult collectables. Let's me know what I should never buy for the kids and what I wish I could buy for myself😂 So glad you enjoyed the videos!
I absolutely love the bed!!! Awesome!!!🥰
Absolutely LOVE this piece! ❤❤❤
You are so creative! I love watching you create these amazing pieces!
